Descriptions and Community Lists
Northern Arizona
Sedona?s red rocks, Flagstaff?s forested mountains, Lake Powell?s blue waters and Monument Valley?s sandstone spires are some of the natural wonders that await you. Enigmatic landscapes that captivate the imagination and capture the soul are found throughout Northern Arizona. Here, the mile-deep Grand Canyon slashes its colorful course across 277 miles, the cobalt-blue waters of Lake Powell mark a stunning contrast against the sandstone shoreline, and the flourishing forests of the San Francisco Peaks seem to reach the sky. Northern Arizona is also home to such places as the Painted Desert, Canyon de Chelly, and to two of Arizona?s twenty-two Native American tribes, the Navajo and the Hopi. Almost 25,000 square miles of northeastern Arizona belongs to the Navajo people. The 4,000 square-mile Hopi reservation spreads over three mesas. The Hopi villages are among the oldest continuously occupied settlements in North America.
